Jeep safari







Drive off the beaten track in jeep convoy to discover ancient cultures, village life and beautiful countryside. Explore the ruins of the ancient city of Tlos, then see the art of carpet and kilim making at a traditional factory before exploring the icy waterfalls and streams of hidden Saklikent Canyon. After lunch in the open air, and en route to the beautiful classical ruins at Xanthos, the mud baths and icy rushing waters of the Xanthos River will give you a chance to cool off before relaxing on the white sands of 18km long Patara Beach. Join as a driver or non-driver, and be prepared to return a little tired and dusty, but thoroughly exhilarated, after the 180km round trip.
